Remanufacturing

Remanufacturing has a low profile in world economics and is inadequately understood because of its relative freshness in research terms. However, environmental and competitive pressures are shifting the global and business environment and this is attracting interest in the practice. Balancing economic and social development with environmental protection is a key challenge in securing long-standing sustainability. Emerging sustainable approaches to manufacture is a critical global apprehension. Key

Publisher: International journal of production Economics. Summery: Introduction: Remanufacturing has now a days become very popular from auto motives, electronics to IT because it makes production economical and environmentally attractive.

others. This has resulted in new Business opportunities in the field of Remanufacturing and the number of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) has been on the rise. What is Remanufacturing? “Remanufacturing is recovering the product as a whole through a series of operations, which may include disassembly, replacing or repairing non–functional components, reconditioning, and reassembling” (Fleischmann et al., 1997). Remanufacturing includes the disassembly of product into various components, reconditioning

Remanufacturing has several advantages in today’s business world; equipment’s that are considered expensive are produced at an economical cost and also makes for environmental friendly manufacturing. The aim of this study is to empirically investigate the major drivers for remanufacturing in Nigeria. From the empirical analysis, it was found that factors which encourages remanufacturing are economic, environmental and social factors. The methodology employed in this study is a questionnaire survey

) Recycling process doesn’t involve in the following steps as cleaning, reworking, reassembly, and also testing. Hence, the recycling process is quite cheaper compared to remanufacturing process. It’s requires less labor and capital intensive. 2) For recycling process, High initial cost is required. 3) Recycling does not reduce the price of a product, then again, it helps the production process to reduce the cost of the product.4) Recycling process is for recovering materials for future use, and

Electronic and electrical equipment is essential part of busy world.It substitute hard human work and make it faster.The majority of mankind has computer at home or at work. In recent years changing of electronic equipment become faster due to obsolescence and fashion(Deathe et al. 2008, 322 ).The problem of e-waste influence on the future environment hangs over the modern society. E-waste ^ also known as electronic waste.It means electrical and electronic equipment which is not suitable for use

inbound management, and controlling their suppliers from the front end of the supply chain.” (2) Upon considering if RL is appropriate for your organization, the first decision that must be made is which products you would want to include in a remanufacturing process. Rubio et al. describe three main factors in this decision (3). The first is the customer’s willingness to pay for the remanufactured item. Customers tend to value the item less than an original one after it has gone through the process

The results show that while increasing the number of remanufacturing batches, a mixed strategy is more economical than a pure (production or remanufacturing) strategy. The results also show that while increasing production associated costs pure production (remanufactured) is more expensive than a mixed strategy. El Saadany et al. (2013) mentioned that a pure remanufacturing strategy is not possible and it is very difficult to recover a product indefinitely. In that sense, the model of this paper
